2 full days - where to go???

[cj22gsr]

We are going to DW this Thurs. to Sun. and so we only have 2 full days for the parks. My husband and 4 1/2 year old daughter have never been to DW. We are looking to get the park hopper for 3 days, using 1 day at the kingdom and saving 1 day for future use. Where should we go for the 2nd full day? 1 park or split among 2 of the others? Thanks in advance for your help!!

There are some great things at MGM for your daughter. She would love the Little Mermaid show, Beauty and the Beast and Playhouse Disney, for example. However, we found this past May that for our DD3, we didn't need to spend a lot of time at MGM. If I were you, I would go to MGM part of a day and spend a day and a half at MK. This will give you the option of taking your first day at MK with a little more leisure instead of feeling like you have to do everything in one day and fast! My two cents. Have fun!

I'd use 1 full day at MK and split the 2nd day...MGM in the morning and AK in the afternoon or the other way around. Your DD would enjoy all 3 parks, I'm sure.

What about Epcot??

I also have a DD4 and if I only had 2 days I would split both of them. I'd do MK Friday and then in late afternoon head over to Epcot. There's a MVMCP that night anyway, so MK closes at 6. On Saturday, I'd start at AK (since it closes at 5) and then wrap up the day at MGM. MGM and AK can easily be done in half a day.

If you do the safari at AK, I hope you get Donna as your driver. She does a great job.

I would split the second day between MGM and Epcot. They are a short boat ride/walk away from one another. My 4 1/2 year old loves the World Showcase Kidcot stations. They also have lots of good opportunities to meet characters without huge lines. We always end our vacation by going to Epcot, and it's like taking a break from the usual theme park atmosphere but having a great time.

I also would use all 3 days on my park hopper. Especially since they are coming out with new MYW tickets that will make adding on days as cheap as a dollar.
